Musk cuts Starlink access for Russian forces - giving Ukraine an edge at the front
Evidence is mounting that Elon Musk's decision to deny Russian forces access to his Starlink satellite-based internet service has blunted Moscow's advance, caused confusion among Russian soldiers and handed an advantage to Ukraine's defenders. And what can Ukraine's military achieve in the meantime? The Russians lost their ability to control the field, a Ukrainian drone operator who goes by the callsign Giovanni told us. I think they lost 50% of their capacity for offence, he said. That's what the numbers show.

Therefore, we do not13 expect that alternativelearning algorithms likeA2C orDQN would reveal interesting insights into the dynamics of14 ourenvironment.

A Hand-Crafted Example
The code for our experiments is available at https://github.com/AndyShih12/HyperSPN. To examine the merits of HyperSPNs as discussed in Section 3, we construct a hand-crafted dataset to test the three types of models described in Figure 4: SPN-Large, SPN-Small, and HyperSPN. The hand-crafted dataset is procedurally generated with 256 binary variables and 10000 instances, broken into train/valid/test splits at 70/10/20%. The generation procedure is designed such that the correlation between variable i and j is dependent on the path length between leaves i and j of a complete binary tree over the 256 variables. The exact details can be found in our code.
